1. Little Sag 2. Tuscarora 3. SAK 4. Trail Lake 5. Finger Lake 6. Frost 7. Burnt 8. South Temperance 9. Cherokee 10. Ge-be-on-e-quet (I think this one was a great site but, a wind storm had just blown down several trees before we had arrived making it tough to use while we were there.) 11. Mesaba (This one has been ravaged by time and is not as nice as it once was.) |

The site on Moosecamp west of the portage was nice. I stayted at the site on Oyster on the peninsula, but it just felt way too big for a solo and I didn't like most of the tent pads down in the pines on dirt and dark and damp. I actually set up on some grass up on top. The middle site on Boot was nice. There was a decent site on Quadga and one on Crab and one along the Isabella River. I've stayed at some others that were memorable because of things that happened there like tom m said, but they weren't 5-star sites. But I do read the campsite reviews before each trip :). |

I've been to the Gillis site, it's a goody, I have a couple favorites on LLC, the southeast island site on Long Island, either of the big beach sites on Frost, the 2 peninsula site on Oyster, the mid-lake site on Davis (just for it's seclusion)....wow...the list gets big. |

WhiteWolf: " With more experience, I have to move Knife and Insula ahead of IMA. Stuart goes above ALpine even pre-burn. GUN replaces Vista easily for #'s. |

Loon#25 Cherry#322 Ester#329 Ogish#971 These sights are very good but seem to be the best as something good or memorable happen while I was there. Excellent weather, sunset, fishing, swimming, etc. made the particular campsite seem 5 star |

I was there in 94 and came back in 2007. The campsite is now pretty much wrecked. Decades of over-use. I couldn't believe how degraded it became from the time between my stays. I've often wondered what the USFS plans to do about the quality, or lack of quality of most of the BWCA campsites from the pounding they get each summer. Blahhh. Tom |
